WASHINGTON, Sept. 23 (UPI) -- CIA Director Porter Goss promised to reassert his agency as a global intelligence network, saying he would send agents to "places people can't even imagine."
Goss, speaking Thursday to an employee "town meeting" days before the one-year anniversary of his becoming director of the CIA, sought to boost morale at the agency that has been rocked by investigations into its capabilities after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.
A CIA-provided transcript quoted Goss as saying, "We are not in all of the places we should be. We don't have this luxury anymore. ... We are going to be in places people can't even imagine."
The director said the CIA was looking for "new and creative ways to get more and more of out officers out of Washington. We do not serve our policy makers if we are not in the places that they need us to be today, and are not reporting from places they don't expect us to be -- but where they may need is to be tomorrow."
